Weekly Yoga (temporarily suspended) |
|
On Wednesday evenings at 5:30, parishioners and friends enjoy instruction from our own John Inzerillo, MD, who has been practicing yoga now for over 12 years. The author of the recently published Passion Beyond Pain: A Mindful Approach to Living a Life of Balance, Dr. Inzerillo leads us through contemplative stretching exercises called “asanas” that relax mind and body, promote circulation and overall health. This has been a wonderful opportunity to slow down and honor the temple of the Spirit, which is the body. Dr. Inzerillo serves as a hematologist/oncologist on the staff of Beaufort County Medical Center here in Washington.
